LYRICS

PictureHere I am at 18 with my first guitar. My cousin Jessica and I are having some fun co-writing some lyrics.

I started writing music when I received my first guitar for my 18th birthday. I remember locking myself in my room for hours, marveling at the works of other singer-songwriters I had so dearly looked up to. Some of my favorites were Jewel, Michelle Branch, Stevie Nicks, Sheryl Crow, Fiona Apple and Lisa Loeb. The list is actually pretty endless, but these were the poetic women who really shaped my love for writing in the lyrical style. Most of my songs, I played around the NJ Acoustic Open Mic circuit, and I was even fortunate enough to have been able to record a few songs  or “excerpts” of this life of mine. I hope you enjoy reading through these, as much as I did creating them.

The Frenzy

ABOUT THE SONG 
I wrote this song around 2013, I had just gotten a new notebook, and when I get new notebooks, I always get this sudden burst of inspiration. Something about the blank pages, makes me want to fill them all with songs and creative thoughts. When I got this notebook, I had given myself a challenge that I wanted to write one song a day. Well, that challenge didn't last long at all, hahaha! But I got this song out of it! The song is based on the book The Frenzy, by one of my favorite authors Francesca Lia Block. It's about a girl who is a werewolf, so that inspired me to write this song from her perspective. This song wasn't written about the book specifically, I just used the concept to get a feel of what it would be like inside the mind of a girl with supernatural tendencies who has the desire to eat people hahaha. I could see the production going in the style of Christina Aguilera's song "Infatuation". It definitely has a latin rhythm type feel which is a lot of fun.

Music & Lyrics

Verse 1: 
​So it's getting pretty dark now 
Gonna lose the light soon honey
Shoulda gotten in that car 
Shoulda taken that ride 
When you had the chance 

Cuz I got my eye on somethin'
I'm gettin' pretty hungry baby 
Mmm Mmm
Am I making you nervous?
Cuz I could see the sweat 
Drippin' from your hands 

Pre Chorus:
Cuz you are the one 
You are the one
You are the one
That I gotta have...

Chorus:
I can't control this hunger
It's got its hold on me
And I'm never gonna let it go
You'll never find 
The strength inside to fight me
You can hide, 
But you'll never get away 
From the Frenzy 


Verse 2: 
So now that we're alone now
Do ya feel the tension honey?
Cuz I can see your heartbeat
Trying to fight its way to me 
Through your chest

You were never a believer 
Of the supernatural honey
Mmm Mmm 
But then you see the moonlight 
And any doubts that you had 
​Were put to rest...

Pre Chorus:
Cuz you are the one 
You are the one
You are the one
That I gotta have...

Chorus:
I can't control this hunger
It's got its hold on me
And I'm never gonna let it go
You'll never find 
The strength inside to fight me
You can hide, 
But you'll never get away 
From the Frenzy 


Bridge:
Don't move too fast
Cuz I will be the one to show you 
How it feels 
To be at the mercy of an...
Of an animal 
You can run faster 
And faster and faster
Don't think that I won't catch up...

INSTRUMENTAL BREAK 

Chorus:
I can't control this hunger
It's got its hold on me
And I'm never gonna let it go
You'll never find 
The strength inside to fight me

Fight me, OH!

I can't control this hunger
It's got its hold on me
And I'm never gonna let it go
You'll never find 
The strength inside to fight me

Fight Me, Fight Me 
Oooh Oooh 
But you'll never get away from the Frenzy...

​Whoa Whoa Whoa.....
